RUMANIA WILL FIGHT
TO SAVE THE COUNTRY REASONS FOR MILITARY ACTION. HUNGARY’S AGGRESSIVENESS. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. (Received This Day, 11.5 a.m.) BUCHAREST, March 27. M. Armand Calinescu (Minister for the Interior) states: “We will fight with all our might for the integrity of our country. Rumania took military precautions on March 15 because Hungary was concentrating troops on the frontier, and showed by wireless announcements that it was aggressive towards Rumania. “Not desiring foreign territory Rumania refused the offer of the former Premier of Ruthenia, M. Voloshin, of annexation.” M. Calinescu added: “The GermanRumanian agreement was exclusively economic.”
M. Calinescu declared that had Germany raised the question of Rumania’s independence he would have immediately broken off trade pact negotiations.
M. Gafencu said that Rumania had not intervened in Ruthenia because of friendship to Poland and understanding Hungarian desires.
